I have a friend with a 25 motion with pickups molded into the sponsons. I don't know if they were factory installed but the inlets look factory. I have a velocity with twin 280s' and I am going to install transom pickups for the same reason.Cheap insurance. My porta lift bracket solenoid craped and overheated both motors to the tune of 4000.00. Best of luck to you Skydog. Bob.

Talk to Marty @ Diamond Marine they can do low water mods to the water intake on the lowers.That maybe will solve your problem,it worked well on my 28 skater
